Obviously :)
But I am worried that if I leave it loose it will vibrate even looser, and that's when the glycol starts shooting out all over the place. You don't want to have to clean up a large glycol spill, it is a PITA and that stuff is expensive!

Duct tape. ;D

I think you might have a kink or blockage in your system. Because opening vent you relieved pressure making pump turn free. I would move and squeeze the lines and see if you hear a change in the pump.

Your pump does not look like a March pump, but I have heard that sometimes the thrust washer is left off of the impeller spindle allowing the impeller to rattle around a bit. Make sure all the pieces/parts are in place inside the pump head.

Can you describe the noise? A whine? Or a growl?
